Synonyms

ARSC, ARSC1

Description

Steroid sulfatase (microsomal), isozyme S (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the conversion of sulfated steroid precursors to estrogens during pregnancy. The encoded protein is found in the endoplasmic reticulum, where it acts as a homodimer. Mutations in this gene are known to cause X-linked ichthyosis (XLI). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
